Japan-Funded Scholarships Programs

Japan helps finance two Scholarship programs—the Scholarship Program for Advanced Studies and the Scholarship Program for Asia.

Japan-IMF Scholarship Program for Advanced Studies

The Japan-IMF Scholarship Program for Advanced Studies (JISP) is financed by the government of Japan and administered by the IMF Institute for Capacity Development (ICD) with assistance from the Institute of International Education (IIE) and International Education Blueprint (IEB) in Japan. The goal of JISP is to support Japanese scholars during their doctoral studies and help them join the IMF as applied macroeconomists.

It supports graduate studies in Japan in macroeconomics or related fields for junior government officials from Asia, Central Asia, and the Pacific.
